GBP/USD Technical Analysis: Cable closing Monday’s gap remains constructive to the upside with 1.3259 bull target

  • GBP/USD is trading in a bull trend as the market is above the 200-period simple moving average.
  • GBP/USD slipped below 1.3100 and bulls closed the Monday gap. GBP/USD is set to continue to grind higher as the RSI, MACD and Stochastic indicators are supportive for more gains ahead. Targets to the upside can be located near 1.3200 and 1.3259 (October 12 high).
  • On the flip side, a bear breakout below 1.3100 on a daily closing basis should invalidate the bullish bias.
